What is LuxAlgo – FVG Instantaneous Mitigation Signals?
LuxAlgo – FVG Instantaneous Mitigation Signals identifies Fair Value Gap (FVG) areas and draws bullish and bearish elements with independent colors. The display can include average lines, TP/SL areas, and a trailing-stop representation.
The plotted areas describe the indicator’s FVG calculation. They should be reviewed with surrounding highs, lows, and market structure rather than treated as a fixed trade outcome.
How to use LuxAlgo – FVG Instantaneous Mitigation Signals
Review the bullish and bearish FVG markings with their average lines and the visible price structure. If TP/SL areas are enabled, keep them separate from the FVG itself: they are configurable display elements.
FVG Width Filter controls the smallest FVG retained. The TP/SL, Trailing Stop, and Style groups control their respective drawn elements.
Where it helps
Independent switches and colors control the two FVG directions.
Average lines and areas can remain visible with the detected gap.
TP/SL, trailing-stop, and style controls are organized separately.
